The Employment Administration: 2018 Objectives

“This is undoubtedly the employment administration. It has also provided quality jobs with access to social security: health services, day-care centers, pensions, and the possibility of obtaining housing loans”: EPN

“Over the past five years, the minimum wage has recovered by 20 percent in real terms; in other words, 45 percent in nominal terms, which had not happened for over 30 years”: EPN

For the first time in any administration, we have created nearly 3.5 million jobs. Nearly 30 percent of new jobs have been for young people, and more than 40 percent for women.

By 2018, the good news will continue:

1. 20 million Mexicans will have Social Security and will be able to affiliate their families.

2. The number of jobs with benefits will reach four million, more than ever before.

3. The greatest recovery of the purchasing power of the Minimum Wage in the recent history of Mexico during a six-year presidential administration will be achieved.

4. The largest number of Mexicans working with benefits in the history of the country will be registered.

The strengthening of employment began in November 2012 with Labor Reform, which laid the foundations for a more dynamic, flexible and inclusive labor market”: EPN
